----------------------
When an unfortunate accident drove a rift between him and his father, Fung left the family business of pearl diving to pursue a career capturing crocodiles and other exotic wildlife for the local zoos and animal refuges scattered all around the Kimberley. His travels looking for exotic reptiles took him to the Everglades where he met Croc Master. Seeing the potential of Guard Gator Inc., he became a junior partner as well as head of marketing. When Croc Master left the company to take a job on Cobra Island, Fung saw a new type of financial potential for Guard Gator Inc. Now calling themselves the Croc Bandits, he and a few other former employees set out to use alligators as a means of robbing the very customers they were supposed to be guarding.
-----------------------
"Fung is a complicated person. He's not just a bandit leader, okay? He's also a son, a friend, an amateur arsonist, and he has an herb garden with, like, stuff in it."


I was watching an episode of Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness one day, and I thought the Croc Bandits would make fun sidekicks for my favorite Cobra character, Croc Master. The idea grew from there. It developed into them starting out working for Guard Gator Inc., and when Croc Master leaves for Cobra Island, Fung turns the business into a front for his bandit operations.

I extrapolated some of the origin story and the quote from scenes from the cartoon. I wanted to use their names from the cartoon as well, so I gave Fung, and the other Croc Bandits, File Names that lend themselves to nicknames. (Alpine is the epitome of this in the official ARAH line.)

As always, thanks for looking.
